Parking costs £5 per car, per night. The hotel is just off Eastgate and Nettleham Road, close to the A15. Lincoln railway station is less than 10 minutes' drive away or 15 minutes' walk.
The Lincoln Hotel is a restored 1960s hotel next to Lincoln Cathedral and a great base from which to explore the medieval city. The hotel is close to the Westgate Water Tower, The County Assembly Rooms, the Priory Arch and the Medieval Bishops' Palace.
Lincoln Castle, a Norman castle constructed in the late 11th century by William the Conqueror, is five minutes' walk away. The Collection Usher Gallery which houses an eclectic range of works by famous artists, decorative arts and timepieces and the Museum of Lincolnshire Life, which celebrates the culture of Lincolnshire and its people from 1750 to the present day, are both 10 minutes' walk away.
Doddington Hall and Gardens is 15 minutes' drive away and the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is 35 minutes away.
The hotel's AA-Rosette Green Room restaurant combines traditional flavours with a contemporary twist and sources local ingredients. "The Green Room has a striking, design-led interior, with candles and fresh flowers adding a homely touch", says The AA -- which also praises the hotel's "superb uninterrupted views of Lincoln Cathedral".
You can relax in the lounge with a coffee and a cake or have a pre-dinner aperitif in Bar 67 which has a retro décor -- its name is an ode to the spirit of 1967, when Jimi Hendrix played a sell-out gig at Lincoln's ABC Cinema.
Rooms are decorated with modern designs and all come with Wi-Fi and tea- and coffee-making facilities. Superior Rooms have views of Lincoln Cathedral or garden views, and some have a private patio.
An outstanding 98% of over 840 Travelzoo members who visited on a previous deal and rated their experience said they loved it.
The Lincoln Christmas Market takes place from 6-9 December in the medieval square between the castle and the cathedral.

The building is very dated. While most of the staff are very pleasant, they are overstretched. We waited 20 minutes for a coffee when we arrived and breakfast on the first morning was not very organised due to a lack of staff. I had to get up and find someone to ask for a pot of tea. Our table was laid but cups and milk were missing. Food was not replenished unless someone asked for something. It was less busy the following day and therefore service was better.

A tale of two dinners. 7.00pm evening meal we ordered one salmon and one steak meal. They arrived and the salmon meal was cold, it was returned and I carried on eating mine. The second salmon was also cold so that was returned, I carried on with my meal. Third time lucky by which time I had finished. So ended eating my meal on my own and then watched as my wife had hers. Not exactly a nice evening meal out.

Secure parking onsite at £5 for the night and day I feel is very reasonable considering other car park options nearby.

Unfortunately the carpets smelt terribly in the corridors and were very grubby, not in the rooms, but still very off putting. The Cathedral view superior room we had was very tired, lots of chipped paintwork and the toilet didn't flush well. Breakfast mediocre, understaffed and average quality, ordered eggs benedict which was forgotten first off, then when finally did come was on burnt muffins with no ham! I wouldn't want to pay £11 for it.

When s arrived our room was cold, radiator not sorking. Rang reception & they brought up a small heater. Took ages to get warm. Went for evening dinner at 8pm, could not get an earlier time. Both of us have digestion problems & need to eat earlier. Dining room was very chilly. Waited 35 minutes for starter, then another 20 minutes for many course & 15 minutes for dessert. The service was appalling. All the time we were getting colder as there was a cold draught coming in the door. Also my bank could of duck was very under cooked & inedible. I was offered something else but would take time to cook & I was not prepared to wait any longer. We complained to the manager but only got a very muted apology. Also complained about non-working radiator. This was put right by plumber lunchtime next day. This break was for a Wedding Anniversary celebrations & first day was ruined.

The hotel itself is well sited with excellent views of the cathedral from the front rooms which are spacious , well appointed and comfortable . Public rooms are also spacious and comfortable .
Breakfast room and breakfast OK . On the two evenings we spent in the dining room the service was so slow that we walked out after the second course (over two hours) on the first but managed to stay the course on the second . I have never spent so much time in a dining room ,
Fair to say the food was good when it finally arrived but the time of delivery was totally unacceptable .

The diy attitude of many of the staff. The general unhelpfulness of some key staff, eg at reception. The lack of experience and training of many staff in the standards to be expected; the way to talk to customers and the indifference and general absence of managerial oversight of practice in and around the hotel. The couple next to us in the dining room were kept waiting for 55 minutes before receiving their starter course despite having arrived at the time scheduled by the hotel. No sign of any concern by the two young women serving in the dining room.

The hotel was very 'tired' and in need of updating, there was an unpleasant (disinfectant?) smell on the landing/in the room; the restaurant served poor quality - and cold - food, even after returning it for being cold, and the staff clearly had very little training, not knowing how to serve food or drink and leaving all the tables uncleared.

We ate our meals overlooking Lincoln cathedral, floodlight in the evening. We parked up easily in their car park which is a little tricky as it’s on a corner on a one way system but we easily turned around. Once parked up we were able to walk to the cathedral and castle as well as steep hill and the shops so location excellent.
